Need a recipe for a tune? Then ask the expert baker aka Freedom Candlemaker
Startos P. got in touch to tell us about Freedom Candlemaker’s new single Journey and forthcoming album – Beaming Light – released 22nd Feb on the excellent Inner Ear Records. Journey is a magnificent slice of baroque pop which at time reminds me of The Associates – as large a compliment as I can pay….
Before I go for a walk with my puppy Tex I’m gonna listen to the new from Odd XX
Turi Agostino aka Odd XX releases new track Restart. Coupling industrial/electro sonics with a wonderfully ominous vocal from Star Kendrick, he’s proving himself to be one of the most original and exciting artists out in SWIT land at the moment. Excellent video too……. The music video was created by Choreographer Edith Buttingsrud Pedersen and Theatre…
Mt. Mélodie reach new heights
The minute you hear Only Ghosts and Useless Things from Mt. Mélodie you’ll want to get up and dance (not in your underwear Tom). Effortlessly catchy guitar pop song with a delicious instrumental outro reminiscent of Deerhunter (imho). This is the 2nd single from the upcoming debut album “Are We There Yet?” due out the…
My name is Pond,Swan Pond
Here’s the fab Swan Pond from Boston “experimental, electronic, sonic” outfit – Violet Nox. Deep electro beats, ethereal vocals, jangly guitars and a masterful display in feedback control .What’s not to like here. Lots of SWITS out of 10.
Super World Indie Tune Of The Day:We love the songs sent by Tilly Dent*
Till Dent – To Be. Super World Indie Tune Of The Day 14.02.2019. Tilly Dent is a purveyor of folk music with a pleasingly hard edge. “To Be” showcases his lovely Beatlesque vocals and a gift for melody. He has a pretty fine handle on bluesy guitar and tops it all off with some thoughtful…
Bedford Falls Once More Enthralls
New release from Georgia’s answer to The Beatles (and I’m not messing when I’m comparing them to the Liverpool legends) These guys are incapable of penning anything other than fantastic tunes and here’s another masterclass. Check out This Is Your House by the wonderful Bedford Falls. (Cool video too)
SWIT Premiere: Orange you glad we have the juicy new tune from Lost Tapes?
Lost Tapes – The Bill. I was driving home in the wet dank dark of an Irish winter’s evening yesterday, droning home from Belfast [Irish. Béal Feirste – which translates as “It’s grim up north”] when an unexpected missive landed in my lap. It was Rj from one of SWIT’s very favourite outfits – Lost…
Super World Indie Tune Of The Day: It’s adventure time with Land Of Ooo
Land Of Ooo – Fight Against Ceiling Vents. Super World Indie Tune Of The Day – 08.02.2019 Hello SWIT lovers! Well, today’s tune is a modern take on something like Kate Crackernuts* (could she be the modern feminist hero we’ve all been looking for?) or even The Twelve Dancing Princesses. Being a wee bit confused…
Super World Indie Tune Of The Day: Only a fool would absinthe themselves from Pastis
Pastis – Around Here. Super World Indie Tune Of The Day – 07.02.2019 Speaking of drinks, “Around Here” by Pastis also puts me in mind of an ‘Old Fashioned”. Now, not old-fashioned in any derogatory sense of the word, rather in that it’s chock full of the ingredients that make for a classic indie-rock tune….
Delighted to be the receiver of this track from The Black Fever
Adore this track sent in via the SSSH! portal from The Black Fever called Marketing. It’s 3 minutes and 46 seconds of indie pop perfection. The band say “sometimes the only art or images we see while going about our daily lives are those trying to sell us something. Walking around Toronto, you feel the…
Camel Power Club won’t give you the hump.
I fell in love with this track from Camel Power Club featuring Racoon Racoon after about 10 seconds.Why? Because it’s simply wonderful. It reminds me of Twin Peaks (not that it sounds anything like it but it would do equally a good job sound-tracking it) Léa who got in touch tells me A Wave of…
